The Xbox One S is a slick looking game console that's 40 percent smaller than the original and ditches the infamously gigantic power brick. It can display 4K video from streaming services and Ultra HD Blu-rays
And supports HDR contrast on video and games
Vastly reduced physical footprint
4K & HDR streaming
HDR gaming
Xbox platform is steadily improving.
The editors didn't like
4K
Ultra HD Blu-ray and HDR settings only work with newer TVs
And may require some trial and error. The updated controller feels cheaper than its predecessor. Project Scorpio
No SSD option, Might be better to wait for Project Scorpio
More times than not, the Verge score is based on the average of the subscores below. However, since this is a non-weighted average, we reserve the right to tweak the overall score if we feel it doesn't reflect our overall assessment and price of the produ...
The only game console with a UHD Blu-ray drive for 4K movie playback, Refined design, Very quiet and very small, Excellent pack-in gamepad
4K streaming apps and 4K Blu-ray playback don't work out of the box, HDR video for gaming won't be available until this fall, No reason to buy unless you own a 4K TV
Thanks to new software, more compact hardware and an excellent pack-in controller, the Xbox One S feels like a worthy successor to the older Xbox 360. If you already have an Xbox One, however, there's little reason to upgrade unless you're also planni...

Excellent design, New controller is more user friendly, 4K video playback, Streaming from Netflix, Amazon, HDR gaming and video support, 4K upscaling of 1080p games
Not a real 4K gaming console at all, No Kinect port built-in, Only comes with one controller, Overshadowed by Microsoft Scorpio
The bottom line for the Microsoft One S is that if you're looking for a great game console and 4K Blu-ray/streaming media player combo, then this device is a great choice at a decent price. It offers plenty of value per dollar spent. If however you want...
Sleek design, Just as powerful as the Xbox One S, Great for players that only buy digital titles, Comes with three games
Games are more expensive, No 4K Blu-ray or DVD support, No Kinect port
No. If you have a complete aversion to physical media or want a game console in a second room, you might get your money's worth, but the Xbox One S All-Digital Edition will need to be priced lower before it becomes worthwhile beyond those two scenarios.E...
1TB hard drive, Three games included, More convenient, 4K & HDR streaming
Price tag isn't justifiable, Not for those who prefer discs, Looks the same as the Xbox One S
(Image credit: TechRadar)When the Xbox One S arrived three years on from the original Xbox One, it offered smaller, quieter, higher-quality gaming machine. It soon became the de facto Xbox system. But since then we've seen the release of the powerhouse Xb...
Simple entry to the world of Xbox, Comes with everything you need, Three free games in the box, Very quiet operation
Not cheap enough to justify dropping the disc drive, Xbox UI is still clunky, Xbox One S with drive is a similar price
That's what it all really boils down to. The Xbox One S All-Digital Edition is actually an excellent gaming machine that, when coupled with an Xbox Game Pass subscription, provides a perfect jumping-in point for those who haven't had an Xbox One before.Ho...

Signifikant reduktion av både storlek och vikt, Strömma i 4K och HDR, Spela med underbart HDR-förbättrat färgdjup
Behöver en adapter för Kinect, Spelande i 4K begränsas till uppskalning
Xbox One S är en utmärkt och kompetent konsol som på många sätt är vad Microsoft ville skapa med original Xbox One. Den är liten, kraftfull, billig och har gott om spel. Den är så klart inte lika stark som Xbox One X, men S erbjuder ändå uppskalad 4K och...
4K Ultra HD Blu-ray support with HDR, 4K Netflix and Amazon Video playback, 1080p HDR gaming, Great wireless controller, No power brick
Doesn't give you 4K gaming, Slightly slower in operation to its beefier One X sibling
As an entry-level console, the Xbox One S comes jam packed with great features and offers a smooth user experience.It is well worth considering if you are looking for something to spin Ultra HD Blu-rays and haven't taken the plunge yet. Even if you have a...
It's relatively small for a games console. No bulky external power brick. Beautiful white design. Improved texture on the controller
The vertical stand is a £15 add-on. Though quite than its predecessor, it's still not 100% silent. No built in voice control support. HDR gaming isn't widely supported yet
If you've been waiting to buy a new games console, the Xbox One S is the one to get. While the addition of a Bluetooth player and HDR gaming support is nice, the amazing feat of the Xbox One S is so much power in such a tiny, beautiful design. However, th...
Abstract: Another design difference is that the Xbox One X is very slightly slimmer than the Xbox One S, measuring 300 x 240 x 60mm, to the Xbox One S’s 295 x 230 x 64mm.However, even though the One X is only slightly slimmer, the console is far more dense than eve...
